Was that in Larry's house? She ran around like she has never been out of the playpen and never got to explore the room before.
I even played "coy", pretending to be asleep on the couch. She came just close enough so she could outrun me if I suddenly awoke.
Then there's the time she put me in "time out".
And the time we were in the sandbox. I pointed and told her never go by that bank because she would fall into the creek. A little boy came by and was heading toward the bank. She jumped up: "Grandma...Go gett'm."
When she grabbed the camera light stand and LB leapt forward to get her away from it, I just thought “oh oh” - wasn’t sure he would get her in time.
And she also had the good sense to grab one of the bannister slats when she was walking down the hallway above the stairs. That scared me, too, looking down at the area where she could’ve fallen and the big spaces between the slats.
At least there was a gate at the top of the stairs. All those balconies on that house, jutting out along the hillside scare me to death - but I’m acrophobic and wouldn’t be anywhere near the edge of those patios.
I can’t imagine how much it must have cost to babyproof that house - what a nightmare! I think the sitting room they were in was a good choice, with all the stuffed upholstered furniture - looked like velour coverings.
She didn’t run much in the footage I saw - in fact, just saw her walking alone twice. That’s not a criticism at all, just a comment. She’s doing it, but it did seem like ET might’ve told the truth for once - these really were were among her very first steps.
God bless Dannielynn. Wish Virgie could’ve experienced some part of this in person - but at least she can have the video. It’s BTN, I suppose.
